The conversation between Li Xin and Ye Ming was not polite or joking. In fact, the two were seriously discussing how to divide the credit.

The war in the southwest has ended, and this contribution is a huge cake. This time, the Western Expedition Army has all done it. Logically speaking, no matter what the war is, the main general's contribution will always be the greatest, so Li Xin said that he would give most of the contribution to Ye Ming, and the rest would be equally divided with the imperial guards.

Ye Ming meant that Li Xin occupied the big head and the remaining imperial guards were divided equally.

In fact, the result of the two people's speech cannot completely determine the rewards from the court. After all, during the war in the southwest, the military newspapers were sent to the capital every day. The emperor in the capital knew very well who made the most contribution.

However, the results of the two of them discussed will be written into the letter of inviting merit to the Western Army. This letter of inviting merit to a certain extent will affect the rewards issued by the court. After all, the opinions of Li Xin and Ye Ming are in a sense considered to be the opinions of the "military" and the court must give some respect.

The two brothers and brothers joined hands to Jincheng.

Li Xin paid great attention to details, and fell slightly behind Ye Ming, and did not go side by side.

After the group entered the general's mansion, Li Xin had already set up a banquet to welcome the general.

After everyone sat down, Li Xin stood up to toast Ye Ming, and said with a smile: "This time, my Western Army won a great victory, all thanks to the general's plan and command properly. Li Xingui is the general of the Imperial Guard Right Camp. He will replace the brothers of the Imperial Guard Right Camp here, thanking the general!"

As he said that, Li Xinyang drank all his head.

At this moment, the imperial guards under Ye Ming had not arrived at Jincheng yet. Ye Ming was coming to Jincheng with a quick horse. After hearing Li Xin's words, the general also stood up and sighed.

"Chang'an, you are a brother."

"At the beginning, you and I divided the troops. There were more than 47,000 people on your side, and there were more than 94,000 people on your side. You took these 40,000 people to wipe out the traitor in one fell swoop, and there were more than 30,000 people under your command. On the other hand, the more than 90,000 people left are less than 40,000."

Ye Ming's old face turned red, he raised his head and drank the wine in his glass.

"I am ashamed of the imperial guards for my brother."

Li Xin shook his head and bowed to Ye Ming, "Senior Brother is wrong. I have taken tricks all the way. The only time I attacked Jincheng head-on, and there were also the rebels from Hanzhou to help him. They attacked Jincheng on both sides. They were not very capable. On the other hand, the senior brother pushed from Hanzhong to Jiange and stepped on Jianmen Pass. This is the real skill."

Marquis Jing'an said in a deep voice: "It's not that I'm just flattering my beards. Looking at the entire court, anyone who comes here can't move outside Jianmen Pass. Even if Master Ye comes in person, he may not be able to do better than his senior brother."

"Senior brother is the general of the country!"

Although Li Xin's words have some utilitarian elements, what he said is basically true. If an ordinary general comes, he will be helpless. However, Ye Ming has chewed it hard. Not only has he chewed it, but the war damage has not been unacceptable.

This is the basic skill and hard power of a famous general.

If you are in a different place, you will definitely not be able to do what Ye Ming does for Li Xin.

Ye Shaobao sighed, silently poured Li Xin a glass of wine, and also filled it with him.

"In the battle of Jiange, more than 60,000 to 70,000 people died together. If it were Jimen Pass, I would not say a word. After all, Jimen Pass is to defend the enemy outside the national gate. No matter how many people die, it is necessary, but this is Jiange, Shu County..."

Ye Shaobao sighed and drank a sip of wine.

"One side is the soldiers of my Great Jin, and they are the people of my Great Jin..."

"In addition to the people who died on your side, there may be 200,000 deaths in this expedition."

Ye Ming gritted his teeth: "This time, Li Shen has committed a sin in heaven!"

No matter how cruel the general is, he is just a appearance, just a mask. Everyone is human, and no one will be indifferent to the thousands of corpses, especially these people are still from their own country.

However, Ye Ming actually calculated that this time, there were far less than 200,000 people who died, because the Marquis of Jing'an let the water go, and many soldiers died on the "book".

Li Xin accompanied him to drink a drink, patted the general on the shoulder, and comforted him: "Senior Brother, if this chaos is not only in Shu County, it will be a big deal in the future, and there will be more than these people who die in the southwest. At least this time, there are basically no civilians. Senior Brother has made merits."

The two brothers and brothers were drinking and talking. The young master Ye Mao knelt on the side, pouring wine for the two of them in a regular manner, and sat straight.

After the two of them talked for a while, Li Xin began to explain in detail how he successfully captured Jincheng.

Starting from crossing the Motianling Mountains, Li Shenkaicheng surrendered.

After hearing it roughly, Ye Ming frowned deeply. He turned his head to look at the young master Ye Ming, and then whispered to Li Xin: "Chang'an, Ye Mao has made so much contribution?"

Li Xin smiled and said, "Don't worry, senior brother, these are all real credits without any moisture. Ye Mao ignored his life many times along the way, but he couldn't even hold on. These are all credits he has earned for desperately. They are very clean and there is no dirty thing."

After hearing Li Xin's words, the young master raised his chest high.

Ye Ming sighed: "I know you won't be fake in Chang'an, but there are many things in it. Except for Ye Ming, others can do it, and there are no need for him to do many things."

"You brought three Zhechong Mansions out in Chang'an. In addition to Ye Mao's Fangshan Zhechong Mansion, there are two Zhechong Mansions and two Zhechong Duwei."

"According to what you said just now in Chang'an, the contributions of the other two Zhechong Commanders and Zhechong Mansion are much inferior to Ye Mao alone. I don't know how you can lead troops like this, it's too biased."

Li Xin smiled and said, "I always have to help my family, right?"

"Since those two Zhechong Mansions are following you, they are also your family."

Ye Ming looked serious and said solemnly: "You lead troops like Chang'an, it's okay if you lead troops once or twice. Over time, these people will become more and more dissatisfied. If something happens, or the war is not going well, it is possible to explode the camp or even mutiny when it is at a disadvantage!"

Ye Ming's words are the hard-working teachings of an old general to the new general.

He looked serious and said solemnly: "The most important thing for being a general and a commander is to give a bowl of water equally. Only in this way can the hearts of the people and the soldiers be willing to use their lives for you, otherwise they will only care about the distinction between closeness and distantness and will never be able to bring out a strong army."

Li Xin looked serious and stood up and bowed to Ye Ming, "Thank you for your teachings, I have written them down. This is only once, so I won't be the case."

Ye Ming shook his head.

"This time, Ye Mao's contribution was distributed to the other two Zhechong Mansions. After returning to the capital, they would not be mentally unbalanced."

"The people under Ye Mao's command followed and tried their best to take away their credit. If they don't want to do so, what should they do? What do you think about Chang'an?"

Li Xin frowned and said, "I'm afraid this is a bit unfair to Ye Mao."

Ye Ming looked back at Ye Mao, then smiled in silence.

"Ye Mao asked for credit, but it was useless. He would naturally be Duke Chen in the future. Chang'an still wants the court to give him a king of a different surname?"

Li Xin was stunned for a moment, and he thought about it, too.

Others may care about these things, but for the young master, it is nothing.

He doesn't need it.

Ye Ming said a few more words to Li Xin, then suddenly became serious again, looked at Li Xin and asked in a deep voice.

"Chang'an, I have something to ask you for my brother."

Li Xin smiled and said, "Senior brother, just say that, I will definitely tell you everything."

The Ye Shaobao reached out to pour a glass of wine for Li Xin, then raised his head and looked straight at Li Xin.
